Contains some scenes which some viewers may find upsetting.

Available for over a year

Joy’s church defends itself against criticisms it didn’t do enough when she first went missing and Joy’s mum says her daughter’s case was ignored by the media. In this episode we hear from Joy’s church leaders in the US about why they didn’t report Joy missing to her family or the police. We hear some of the messages church members sent to Joy in the days after she was last seen. And Joy’s family claim her case didn’t get enough attention in the media because she’s black. Presented by Cherry Wilson, The Murder of Joy Morgan is a six-part series that follows Joy Morgan’s family for 12 months as they try to make sense of what’s happened. And it delves into Joy’s involvement in a controversial church - where she met her killer. Produced by Cherry Wilson and Duncan Middleton. It is a BBC Newsbeat production for BBC Radio 1
